Daily NBA Thoughts (Wednesday): The Dallas Mavericks have suspended point guard Rajon Rondo one game because he's Rajon Rondo and gets grumpy quite easily, and in this case did so to the Mavs' head coach... This Derrick Rose knee injury news is very sad and disappointing, but anyone pretending to be shocked by it is lying. Which again, is a shame. Of course we hope D-Rose someday recovers. But at this point, when he eventually returns, maybe it should be as a limited-minutes scoring option off the bench... It must be frustrating for Kobe Bryant for his career to wind down while injured and on a team that has no chance of doing anything big... On a brighter note, there's great basketball tonight! First great matchup is Mavs vs Hawks at 7:30pm ET. (No Rondo though.) Enjoy.
